Sure, it can't be that bad. Odin looks like a trustworthy god.

Screaming skulls are like Lost Souls in Doom.

They scream and ram you.

They reanimate if left on the ground.

Chests offer storage solution for Screaming Skulls.
More than 60 of them on this level. Ended up dumping behind doors and dead ends.

Same here. Just about to leave Taris. This is the furthest I've ever got, and I'm actually enjoying it this time.

I've never seen a whole Star Wars movie. Just bits here and there

I saw Episode IV on my first trip to cinema, quite experience but didn't made me neckbeard hardcore fan, had better things to do in post soviet world than collecting expensive toys, gadgets and other fancy stuff...
What a time to be alive when Episodes I-III are considered "decent" compared to modern episodes...

KOTOR have some popamole features (teleport to hideout) but not much handholding and quest description give little space for imagination (pre-quest makers era).

Nocturne was my first SMT game, it was quite different from all the others JRPGS in the sense that you don't play as the hero and your companions are literal demons from mythology and the bible. Just as others JRPGS you have goals but this is where SMT breaks the mold... that end of the world scenario that usually the MC tries to stop it already happened, your goal is whatever you can adapt to it and prosper or be a pussy and choose the law ending. Sadly SMT: Nocturne sold like shit cause is not a weeb fest full of pedo bait. Here check this:

As you can see newer entries were demoted to handhelds cause persona sells more, also they ditch the Kaneko art style (check the previous post with more Apocalypse pics), maybe because it doesn't click with modern audiences, who knows... all I can say is that SMT mainline doesn't revolve around high school (If... was a mistake) while Persona 3 onwards is all about J-pop, Muh waifus and social-links.

TL;DR:

However, the original novel that gave origin to the series is related to it. The first game(Megami Tensei) is related to it. The first SMT has you playing a HS student and so on. It's not revolve around High School that is the problem here(Persona 1 and 2 are great), it's Persona 3 bullshit(social link and so on) that is the problem here. Also, If.. is better than any Persona.

The problem with If... is that it inspired the whole persona games. It doesn't matter if "If..." was good. No "If..." no Persona. While Persona 1 and 2 are good (motherfucking Hitler wielding the spear of destiny with Nyarlathotep as a stand) the same problem as before.

Fuck I forgot about "Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei" you got me there, but as you said: "It does not revolve around High School" sure, there are high school problems (bullying, etc), but it's more of a plot element.

Here's the ova:


At the end of the day, it is what it is. I don't hate If... nor persona 1 and 2, I just wish for more SMT games like we used to have.

Every time I see screenshots from NWN2 posted I have a hard time keeping myself from bursting out "GOD THIS IS AWFUL HOLY SHIT!!!" and scrolling past immediately, the game looks so atrocious that it literally brings tears to my eyes. (Well, maybe it's just the faces.)
You can check if that's the case right now, looking at picture portraits here: https://www.nexusmods.com/neverwinter2/mods/81?tab=images
